About Flat 8
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 8 is a two-bedroom detached house in Bingley (BD16 1DL). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. At 56 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–67 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 15 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2025) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £119,000 is 13.8% below the 2005 sale of £137,995, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£229/sq ft) was about 23% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since December 2005, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area.
